- in ToolsDB2UI class made the vertical layouts have a preferred minimum dimension as opposed to the previous fixed one
- in Geometry Object made sure that the Tools Table second column is set to Resize to contents
- modified some strings and updated the translation strings
- in NCC Tool added a check for the validity of the used tools; its only informative
- in NCC Tool done some refactoring
- modified the Properties Tab for various FlatCAM objects preparing the move of Properties Tool data into the Properties Tab
- if the Properties tab is in focus (selected) when a new object is created then it is automatically selected therefore it's properties will be populated
- added a bilinear interpolation calculation class from: https://github.com/pmav99/interpolation
- in CNCJob UI Autolevelling: made sure that the grid can't have less than 2 rows and 2 columns when using the bilinear interpolation or 1 row and 1 column when using the Voronoi polygons
- 2Sided Tool - modified the UI such that some of the fields will allow only numbers and some special characters ([,],(,),/,*,,,+,-,%)
- Cutout Tool - working on adding mouse bites for the Freeform cutout
- updated the translation files to the current state of the app
- changes in Tool Cutout: now on Cutout Tool start the app will look into Tools Database and search for a tool with same diameter (or within the set tolerance) as the one from Preferences and load it if found or load a default tool if not
- Tool Cutout - this Tool can now load tools from Tools Database through buttons in the Cutout Tool
- in CNCJob UI Autolevelling - added a save dialog for the probing GCode
- added a new GUI element, a DoubleSlider
- in CNCJob UI Autolevelling - GRBL controller - Control: trying to add DoubleSlider + DoubleSpinner combo controls
- in CNCJob UI Autolevelling - added a mini gcode sender for the GRBL to be able to send the probing GCode and get the height map (I may make a small and light app for that so it does not need to have FlatCAM on the GCode sender PC)
- in CNCJob UI Autolevelling finished the probing GCode generation for MACH/LinuxCNC controllers; this GCode can also be viewed
- cleanup of the CNCJob UI; added a checkbox to signal if any append/prepend gcode was set in Preferences (unchecking it will override and disable the usage of the append/prepend GCode)
- the start Gcode is now stored in the CNCJob object attribute gc_start
- GCode Editor - finished adding the ability to select a row in the Tools table and select the related GCode
- modified the visibility change in Excellon UI to no longer do plot() when doing visibility toggle for one of the tools but only a visibility change in the shapes properties
- replaced some icons in the app
- in Code Editor, when changing text, the Save Code button will change color (text and icon) to red and after save it will revert the color to the default one
- in Code Editor some methods rework
- added multiple algorithms for path optimization when generating GCode from an Geometry object beside the original Rtree algorithm: TSA, OR-Tools Basic, OR-Tools metaheuristics
- added controls for Geometry object path optimization in Preferences
- Drilling Tool - working in adding tools auto-load from Tools DB
- some updates to the Excellon Object options
- Drilling Tool - manual add from Tools DB is working
- updated Drilling Tool to use the new settings
- updated the Excellon Editor: the default_data dict is populated now on Editor entry
- Excellon Editor: added a new functionality: conversion of slots to drills
- Excellon UI: added a new feature that is grouped in Advanced Settings: a toggle tools table visibility checkbox
- fixed bug that made the selection box show in the stage of adding manual gaps
- updated Cutout Tool UI
- Cutout Tool - in manual gap adding there is now an option to automatically turn on the big cursor which could help
- Cutout Tool - fixed errors when trying to add a manual gap without having a geometry object selected in the combobox
- fixed partially the Excellon Editor to work with the new data structure
- fixed Excellon export to work with the new data structure
- fixed all transformations in the Excellon object attributes; still need to fix the App Tools that creates or use Exellon objects
- if clicking the activity icon in the status bar and there is no object selected then the effect will be a plot_all with fit_view
- modified the FCLabel GUI element
- Geometry UI - minor updates in the layout; moved the warning text to the tooltip of the generate_cncjob button
- Geometry UI - working in making the modification of tool parameters such that if there is a selection of tools the modification in the Tool parameters will be applied to all selected
- made sure the the GUI settings are cleared on each new install
- added a new signal that is triggered by change in visibility for the Shell Dock and will change the status of the shell label in the status bar. In this way the label will really be changed each time the shell is toggled
- Tool Isolation - added a GUI element to control if the isolation of a polygon, when done with rest, should be done with the current tool even if its interiors (holes in it) could not be isolated or to be left for the next tool
- updated all the translation strings to the latest changes
- Tool Isolation - new feature that allow to isolate interiors of polygons (holes in polygons). It is possible that the isolation to be reported as successful (internal limitations) but some interiors to not be isolated. This way the user get to fix the isolation by doing an extra isolation.
- fixed the issue with factory_defaults being saved every time the app start
- fixed the preferences not being saved to a file when the Save button is pressed in Edit -> Preferences
- fixed and updated the Transform Tools in the Editors
